Meditation

Project Description

Meditation can be part of a yoga session, often concluding it, or you may focus solely on meditation in a public class or a private One2One session. Meditation has become quite popular also in corporate environments where the benefits are now clearly acknowledged.

Though meditation is usually recognized as a largely spiritual practice, it also has many health benefits:

It lowers oxygen consumption.

It decreases respiratory rate.

It increases blood flow and slows the heart rate.

Increases exercise tolerance in heart patients.

Leads to a deeper level of relaxation.

Good for people with high blood pressure as it brings the B.P. to normal.

Reduces anxiety attacks by lowering the levels of blood lactate.

Decreases muscle tension (any pain due to tension) and headaches.
